The Fund seeks high total return over time through a combination of capital appreciation and income.
The fund is a fund of funds that invests in Class W shares of other Nuveen mutual funds and ETFs to track market indices across U.S. equities, international equities, and fixed-income sectors. Its asset allocation automatically shifts from more aggressive to more conservative as its 2035 target retirement date approaches and for approximately 30 years thereafter, moving toward a final allocation of 20% equities and 80% fixed-income by 2065. The fund maintains at least 80% of assets in index-tracking underlying funds. Because actual allocations may vary up to ten percentage points from stated targets within each asset class and market sector, the fund's returns may diverge from any single benchmark.

The 4 share classes hold the same portfolio
| Share class | Expense ratio | 1 year | 3 years | 5 years | Worst fall |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0.10% | +20.49% | +55.45% | +45.58% | -8.12% | |
| 0.25% | +20.27% | +54.74% | +44.41% | -8.17% | |
| 0.35% | +20.16% | +54.28% | +43.70% | -8.21% | |
| 0.18% | +20.48% | +55.27% | +45.07% | -8.14% |
These classes hold the same portfolio, so the 1.88pp spread over 5 years is the cost difference between them — roughly 0.38pp a year — not a difference in what they own.
